SK海力士(SK hynix)计划通过收购英特尔的NAND业务,在五年内将其NAND销售额翻三倍以上,至15万亿韩元。
11月4日,SK海力士(SK hynix)首席执行官李锡熙(Seok-Hee Lee)在其举行的第三季度财报电话会议上介绍了这一新愿景。李锡熙说:“我们将在未来三年内使我们的NAND业务继续可持续发展,并在五年内使公司的NAND销售额翻三倍以上。” 他还表示,“通过收购英特尔NAND业务将使我们成为公认的顶级存储厂商,而不仅是DRAM的领导者。”
2019年SK海力士的NAND销售额为45.5亿美元。
今年,SK海力士在第三季度业务继续保持强劲,销售额为8.1288万亿韩元,营业利润为1.2997万亿韩元,同比增长18.9%和175%。这超出了FnGuide公司此前关于第三季度营业利润1.253万亿韩元的预期。增长的主要原因在于新冠疫情导致在家办公,在线教育课程以及IT设备的需求增加。
然而,尽管移动设备的需求在第三季度有所增加,但由于服务器、固态硬盘的DRAM需求疲弱和内存价格下跌,公司的销售和营业利润分别比上一季度下降了6%和33%。

SK hynix Aims to Triple NAND Sales to 15 Tril. Won in 5 Years
SK hynix has laid out a plan to more than triple its NAND sales to 15 trillion won within five years based on its acquisition of Intel's NAND business.
The company's CEO Lee Seok-hee presented the new vision at a conference call held on Nov. 4 to announce its earnings for the third quarter.
"We will make our NAND business sustainable within the next three years and more than triple the company's NAND sales within five years," Lee said. "We will make sure that SK hynix is recognized as a top memory player through the acquisition of the NAND business from Intel, breaking away from its longstanding image as a DRAM leader.”
SK hynix's NAND sales in 2019 amounted to US$4.55 billion.
Meanwhile, SK hynix continued its strong business performance in the third quarter. The company announced that it recorded 8,128.8 billion won in sales and 1,299.7 billion won in operating profit. The figures are up 18.9 percent and 175 percent, respectively, from a year earlier. This surpasses a consensus of 1.253 trillion won in operating profit in the third quarter suggested by FnGuide.
The impressive performance is attributable to increased demand for semiconductors for IT devices amid an increase in telecommuting and online classes sparked by COVID-19.
However, although demand for mobile devices showed signs of a recovery in the third quarter, the company's sales and operating profit dropped 6 percent and 33 percent, respectively, compared to the previous quarter due to weak demand for DRAMs for servers and solid state drives (SSDs) and a drop in memory prices, SK hynix explained.
